- By: victor kenz
Consumers are often now being phished, targeting to extend their car warranty, calling them on their mobiles, as well as postcards, letters and E-mails to sell expensive extended warranties, and often know their personal information. Many who receive these postcards, mails or phones don't have a warranty that's about to expire, and some don't have a warranty at all.
Some people has already faced a gimmick of a sales person , getting them on the line by phone or mail and urge the consumer to call a toll-free number and push a button to be connected to a representative to get you buy an outrageously priced extended car warranty.
Few months ago, in the state of Missouri there is a similar problem with warranty. Ann Topolinksi, who recently purchased a new Toyota Prius with a 3 year, 36, 0000 mile warranty was surprised when she got the recorded message. In her recorded message they stated that her car is in danger with expiry of warranty.
The state attorney of Krohn and Moss sued several of those car warranty problems car warranty problems, claiming they used misrepresentation and deception to generate sales and offered some tips to follow up in such car warranty problems:
• Don’t give out your information about your financial info of your credit cards Who ever the person contacted you.
• Get the complete details of terms and conditions, when considered as an extended warranty and insist the telecallers to send the details before you agree to bid money of your credit information or agree to update any of the details.
• Read all the terms and conditions before entering into any warranty contract and make sure you fully follow the terms.
Most of the companies presently plan to sell off the extended warranties or to know their personal information by dealing with deceptive advertising and high pressure sales tactics.
Many consumers are frustrated and confused, but not wanting their car warranties to expire and went ahead and purchased the new warranties but, in most cases, unneeded.
People who were tricked into buying one of these extended warranties should be careful because the sales people intend to break their warranty on purpose so that they get a new warranty. This is often done by sending mails, messages, Post cards and through the phone calls.
If you received one of these sales calls selling extended warranties, collect the information and file a complaint with Federal trade commission.
